I have another soup recipe that uses sausage, which we all love. I was looking for something similar but with less fat when I found this recipe. I used turkey kielbasa and replaced the black beans with cannelloni beans (white kidney beans). I also used Italian Spice in place of the thyme. We really enjoyed the soup a lot. My only complaint was the carrots were not cooked at 6 hours. We were supposed to have the soup for Sunday lunch, but I had to fix something else and serve the soup for dinner. Even after 12 hours on low, the carrots were still a bit firmer than we like. I would recommend precooking the carrots a bit or using canned if you are going to cook the soup for only 6 hours.

This was a delicious hearty soup and low fat too. I made it just as written. I diced my carrots and had no problem with them being cooked enough. This is very good. Thanks so much for sharing.

I would give this more than 5 stars if I could! We throw this in the crockpot before going to football games and come home to an awesome dinner. Even my 5 yr-old loves this soup! I strongly suggest you serve it with WW Cornbread #327634. I've made this many times and have never had trouble with the carrots being done. A truly wonderful, and easy, recipe!

This was delicious and perfect for a cold winter Sunday dinner. We really enjoyed it and would make again. Only change was to add a few more carrots.

This is a very filling soup. I think next time I will use low sodium broth as it was too salty by itself. When we added the cornbread to the soup, it make it perfect. Thanks for the recipe.

This was a good soup, we served it with corn bread like another reviewer suggested and it was a great pair. Thanks for sharing this one!
